I would love to see one of those guys fight the modern-day guys. You are right about Jim Jefferies. He lost 110 pounds to fight Jack Johnson after being retired for 6 years. Look at the tremendous rock-hard shape he is in for the fight. Also he was 37 years old at the time which is that fateful number for heavyweight comebacks.
Yeah imagine a u.s. president being the referee that would be really something
His initial feint, I was like man I see that a mile away, then he jerked his head, hand again? I was like dayum!! Nice.
As far as him getting back in shape- IMO this gives cred to old timer boxing fans that relish the past- He didn't have no Jenny Craig, no Cuisine Lean meals, no hydroxy cut, no Garcinia Cambogia no excusing ..:It's my metabolism...I can't lose weight

...aka no excuse making or nothing, just man the Fuck up and lose some weight by exercising.
